What is Uber Cash?

Uber Cash is a new feature that allows customers to load money for upcoming rides and food from its meal delivery service. The service was first launched in the US in November 2018 and is designed to give riders an easier way to pay for their trips.

Uber Cash allows you to top up your account with $10, $20 or $50 at a time using cash at participating retailers like 7-Eleven stores across South Africa. As soon as you’ve topped up your account, you’ll receive an email confirming this; then all you need to do is enter the code shown in the ‘Payment’ section of your Uber app when making a trip request.

Here are the details of how it works

In case you haven’t heard, we’re testing out a new feature in the Uber app called Uber Cash. The idea behind it is that customers can load money onto their accounts so they can use Uber without worrying about their credit card or cash. You can use your credit card for payment, or if you don’t have one, then you can add cash to your account through the app—and there are no fees involved!

In addition to this, Uber Cash also works with our food delivery service called “Uber Eats.” If someone wants to order food but only has cash on them (or maybe they don’t even have a bank account), they can just order through the app and ask us to deliver it while still paying with US dollars instead of South African rand (ZAR).
